What have you done to prep this week?

[Sniper-T]

Awesome work everyone!

Aside from putting 50# of Salmon in my freezer, I bought a Presto 23 quart pressure canner, and an outdoor propane burner

He's 2 1/2. Would it have freaked y'all out if I said he was 17? Lol

My 7 year old still sneaks into bed with us and I am at my wit's end. She is getting too big to carry back to her room. Her feet drag on the ground when I have to carry her up the stairs. Between her, the hubs, the dog, and now the new kitten, there usually isn't enough room for me. I want my own bedroom!

Thanks to Stormfeather, we just ordered a few buckets of freeze dry meals and veggies from Costco. Also, just got my NATO fuel cans in from CTD.

I am SLOWLY but surely stocking our buttpacks and BOBs. I got 2 small bottles of gold bond powder. Funds are low due to my post deployment 2k a month paycut. Going out Saturday to sell my extra tactical gear to local shops. Going out next week for 10 days of constant gunshoots, NVG gunshoots, and fun. I just learned that I can modify my M4 how I want, so I'm gonna put my Aimpoint to some use. So, I know its not the same platform as my AK, but it is training on a high end optic.

Picked up a Maxpedition hook and loop holster for my versipack to go in the zippered gun compartment, I've had a full holster in there for ages that had hook and loop on it, it was so bulky it cut down about 1/2 inch of cargo space from the main compartment, so I'm glad that's gone, it also drops a few extra ounces from the pack itself, so double bonus. I'm ordering an ATS War Belt for my 1st line gear tonight, it's time to upgrade from a pistol belt now that it does rifle mag duty, just not enough belt for 4 pistol mags, thigh mounted drop leg, and ak/ar mags with IFAK, and dump pouch. The pistol belt is gonna be the inner belt for the ATS. I wish they made it in OD, oh well. I've decided that my essential survival tools are too spread out in the BOB, so I want to find a reasonably priced but decent quality E&E type bag to go inside the BOB for essentials like fire, water, shelter prep, signaling, light, etc. that can be carried as a standalone bag. My Versipack is my EDC, and duplicates lots of the items, but I don't want to rely on that pack being with me when carrying the BOB. My GHB, while it is a grab and go, Everyday, everywhere vehicle carried item is 50-50 focused on a 12-24+\- hour walk home, or an active shooter type situation should I get trapped in the crossfire in public, there's ammo in the BOB, and magazines for a rifle, but I want to have a survival kit style organizer, carry bag for actual tasks and not shooting. I thought of just getting a large admin pouch, but I think a bag would work better. The Maxpedition Active Shooter bag, and the Condor E&E are both in the realm of what I'm looking for.

Going up to Honeyville tomorrow

[Taz Baby]

DH put up 80 lbs of rice, got propane and found some pawpaw trees on our property, picked the last of the cucumbers and now working on the corn and watermelons.

[bacpacker]

I hope you have better luck out of your Papaws than we have. I've planted 4 and only 2 have made it.

I picked 18 cantaloupe tonight and will have 6 more by Sunday evening. Water melon are about ready to start on. Winter squash are really close as well.

[Sniper-T]

what are you doing with all the canteloupe?

[GunnerMax]

I started my food preps. I stowed away a gallon of water. Slow and steady, with minimul fuss from the wife.
